Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2017-12-09, pretty good fight between Francisco Vargas and Stephen Smith: it gets three stars.

The former Wbc super-Fw champion Francisco Vargas entered this fight with a pro boxing record of 23-1-2 (17 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.5 super featherweight in the world (currently the #1 in this division is Vasyl Lomachenko). He won the Wbc super-Fw belt in 2015, against Takashi Miura (The Ring magazine Fight of the Year 2015, Miura vs Vargas) but then he drew with Orlando Salido in 2016 (5-stars fight, Vargas vs Salido) and he has lost to Miguel Berchelt in 2017 (4-stars fight, Vargas vs Berchelt).
His opponent, Stephen Smith, has a record of 25-3-0 (15 knockouts) and he entered as the No.21 in the same weight class. He lost to Jason Sosa last year (=Sosa vs Smith) but he came back to win in 2017 with Karoly Gallovich. Vargas vs Smith is on the undercard of Orlando Salido vs Miguel Roman.
